Could do without the pressure

Posted Jul 29, 2015

Enjoyed the place and the food. Did not enjoy the pressure to attend the "special promotion" presentation.

Frequent traveler to Mexico and other destinations

Pros: The dinners at the Italian, Steak and Mexican restaurants were very good. The buffet meals were horrible.

Cons: I can't with 100 % certainty say that my kids picked up head lice while at this resort but I'm not sure where else they would have picked it up.

Location: We took our kids on the subsea cruise and it was a waste of time and money. Parasailing and the dolphin encounter at Wet and Wild were great.

My family and I have traveled to Mexico on many occasions and are very accustomed to the varied quality of service at all inclusive resorts. I don't typically rate hotels good or bad but I felt this resort was of such low quality that others might want a heads up prior to booking. The arrival and check-in process were relatively painless but at no time were we treated as welcome guests except when the driver and bell boy were trying to get a tip. If you expect a true "ocean view" room you might want to upgrade because "ocean view" doesn't necessarily mean you will get a decent view or location. The rooms were OK but nothing more. The free mini bar was never restocked the entire week we were there. We only went to one of the evening shows (Michael Jackson) and it was more like a high school talent show. Air conditioning throughout the resort is sub-par. We are accustomed to the heat but it was hard to find a decent place to relax and cool down. The beach and the ocean at this location are covered and full of sea weed so the entire time your swimming it's on or around you. I can't say all of the staff were rude but it was the majority. I was blown away on several occasions when a staff member asked us to move so they could sweep, mop or just clean up an area we were using at the time. The time share sales staff were way to pushy and waited like vultures in the lobby around the elevators. I could add much much more but I am limited to only 8 more characters.

Hotel sem manutenção. Não é resort

Hotel Velho. Manutenção horrível. Poucos funcionários. Os Restaurantes são bons, tirando o Italiano (horrível). O buffet é fraco. Estrutura de piscina pequena para a quantidade de hospedes. Academia parece mais uma sauna e tem poucos equipamentos. Old Hotel. Horrible maintenance. Few employees. Restaurants are good, but the Italian is horrible. The buffet is weak, but it is ok. Small pool structure considering the number of the guests. The gym looks more like a sauna.

Great for kids between 4-10 years old

Posted Jul 20, 2015

Great hotel for kids between 4-10. Has a waterpark for kids, water slides, 2 swimming pools with beach view. I would recommend this hotel if you don't wanna walk a lot, it is a small hotel, but it offers everything you need to make your stay a pleasant one.

Just ok

Posted Jul 15, 2015

It was Ok. I hated that you didn't get more then 2 bottles of water per room a day. If I needed milk for my baby ( 15 months old) I had to get it through room service and they charged me $5 every time. I don't think I have ever paid $5 for 1liter of milk in my life. Otherwise rooms are very clean and the and food was good

Dirty and run-down grounds, nasty food...

Posted Jul 13, 2015

This place should be a one star. You will be disappointed regardless of your standards. It's dirty, rundown, and a simply disgusting excuse for a hotel. it doesn't matter if something is "all inclusive" when all that's included is crap. It just means all you can eat crap. if you don't mind hair, used band aids, and a dirty diaper laying next to the pool, cups that just sit there for the whole day, cries stuck in the pool gutters than go for it!

Overall people nice but management is bad.

Posted Jul 12, 2015

1. when I check in the room was different from the one I book. Even though next day change but that's my Vacation& am not happy to move and argue with people. 2. First night we check in 5pm. Only eat Buffet. Because the resvation time 8am to 2pm no chance to call. Next day call no chance tonight even though I checked in last night. 3. We had more than 8 people . When we called at 10am to make resvation the answer was all restaurants were full. And we had to talk to concierge for another dinner time. We had to check everyday to make sure our tables weren't far apart and we were forced to go to different restaurants. we didn't even have time to relax.😦😧😔

Not recomended

Posted Jul 11, 2015

Only 5th and 6th floor are renovated, and looks ok, they will try to charge you extra fee for it. At check out because you don't have enough time to argue with (short time to the plane),they will charge you extra fee as well , for different reason. Horrible service
